Kelly Joe Phelps

Opening Act: Michael Jerome Browne

Sublime guitarist and folk-blues singer Kelly Joe Phelps has become a regular of the Festival and a favorite of the Jazz All-Year Round series. He loves Montreal and Montreal loves him. A highly original musical creator and a brilliant improviser, Kelly Joe Phelps is an artist in the most profound sense. For this visit, he'll be presenting selections from his entire catalogue of seven albums - all of which have garnered him rave reviews and more than a few fans - most particularly his two most recent, Slingshot Professionnals and Tap The Red Cane Whirlwind. For the opening act, be sure to catch one of Canada's finest blues ambassadors, Michael Jerome Browne, who's made waves coast-to-coast as a solo performer. Michael's the perfect match for Phelps: an authentic proponent of an established musical idiom, brilliantly talented and totally unpretentious.
